False Impressions

As a foreigner living in Tunisia, Rachel Manley often found irony in her surroundings. When the revolution came, she found truth in so many ways.

False Impression was started a little over a month before the Jasmine Revolution happened. Now known as the Arab Spring, the long-ruling president was overthrown and the former ruling party was dissolved, leaving the population in a state of uncertainty. Although she did not intend to for her work to be poltical, it was inevitable that “the delicate time of transition of the recovering nation (influenced) her body of work.”
